Biography
Aiman Zaidi was born in Jerusalem, Mandatory Palestine to a Sunni Muslim family. When he was young, he witnessed several Jewish-Arab fights in Jerusalem at the time of the Palestinian Civil War of 1947 and the Israeli War of Independence in 1948-49. Zaidi later fled to Amman, Transjordan with his family. Zaidi was educated in Amman, before joining the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) terrorist group, hoping to liberate Palestine from Israel. Zaidi became a baggage handler at the Leonardo da Vinci International Airport of Rome, Italy, but he really supplied bombs to Palestinian terrorists through his job.

On 12 March 1975 Zaidi was killed by eleven shots from Mossad agents that tracked him down to his home with the help of Le Group, a French private intelligence agency. The Mossad agents, acting under the aliases of "Meir Luzzatto", "Bertoldo Amalfi", and "Teobaldo Schapiro", escaped the country with Italian passports.
